   A                         E              B                    E 
Yesterday it caught you off guard, hitting harder than hitting a wall 
    A                             E                B                       E 
The words that you don't want to hear, left you crippled and facing your fear 

 A            E          B                   E    
And you know now, the chance of survival is slim 
   A          E          B      C#m         A 
And you know now, the feeling you're empty within 

  C#m         A            E 
When it seems like all is lost 
  C#m         B           E 
And you feel you can't go on 
   A        B      E 
Just give it to a God 
          C#m A         E 
Who is bigger than the odds 

       A                        E 
Your aching heart falls to the floor 
        B                 E 
Your spirit can't take anymore 
        A                     E 
The numbness has washed over you 
            B                      E 
You're searching for more you could do 

    A           E         B                     E 
Cause you know now, the chance of survival is slim 
  A           E       B          C#m                    A 
And you know now, feeling like the whole world's caving in 

  
C#m         A            E 
When it seems like all is lost 
  C#m         B           E 
And you feel you can't go on 
   A        B      E 
Just give it to a God 
          C#m A         E 
Who is bigger than the odds 

             A                       B 
He gives strength to the weary and power to the weak 
        C#m 
He's beyond understanding giving hope to the meek 
         A           B                  C#m (2nd time E) 
To the ends of the earth, he is wherever we seek (repeat bridge) 


C#m         A            E 
When it seems like all is lost 
  C#m         B           E 
And you feel you can't go on 
   A        B      E 
Just give it to a God 
          C#m A         E 
Who is bigger than the odds 
      A              E 
Just give it to our God  
    C#m      A             E  
Cause He's bigger than the odds
